Description: "Chronicles the true story of a young girl in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan who must disguise herself as a boy to save her family from starvation. The first feature film made in Afghanistan in the post-Taliban era." - UMich Lib
["Through the dark black smoke of war" - film review in The Guardian that indicates film is in Dari, not Pashto (both of which are Afghanistan's official languages). Some catalog records, such as in UMich Lib indicate Pashto language, but that appears to be wrong.]
